Name the several particulars in which these birds ofyour list are alike — those features of build, covering, ac-tivities, and manner of life that are common to all. In whatrespects do they all differ from domestic fowls such as the hen ? 3. Tell what there is characteristic of any four of thebirds named whereby you identify them. (Include detailsof their nesting, rearing of young, migrations, relations tomen and to other birds, their songs, and the differences inplumage of male and female.) 4. Make another list of birds known to be more or lesscommon in your neighborhood but not recognized by youat sight with certainty. Underscore the names of any in thislist that you think you might be able to call by name ifyou should see them. 5. Select one bird
